Episode 89: 1495 Blended Scotch Whisky
23 June, 2025
Cheap Week continues and with a strict budget of $50 or less for a 700mL Bottle in the Australian Market, I set out to prove whether it’s possible to find a good Scotch you can drink neat and enjoy…or whether you’re wasting your time. The cheapest Scotch at Dan Murphy’s is the 1495 which turns out, is an own-brand. I dig into what that means, who Pinnacle Drinks are and realise that the 1495 has no real story behind it, no history and no…hmmm…quite possibly my harshest review to date.

Some online, self-proclaimed aficianados aren’t fans of Dalmore for their use of colouring and filtering in their offerings, so when I had the chance to try the 12 Year Sherry Cask offering, I went in with modest expectations. It’s an interesting dram and I look a little bit into the naming and branding of Dalmore, their production and yes, whether the haters were right…or if they were wrong…

Episode 37: Glenmorangie 10 Year Single Malt Whisky
26 February, 2025
The Glenmo-10 is well known as the foundation of most of Glenmorangie’s offerings and what a base it is! I review the popular dram whilst the 10 Year offering is still available, as they are moving to a 12 year base in coming years. I also talk about the popular Dr Bill Lumsden as well as Dan Crowells commentary on Wood management and their investment in Oak plantations, their lease arrangement with Jack Daniels and how air-seasoning works.

Episode 36: Johnnie Walker Scotch Whiskies Ranked
23 February, 2025
The summary episode of the Johnnie Walker Core Range series is my ranking of all seven offerings listed in two dimensions. The first, if money is no object and the second, which is the best value overall? Which will take the crown? The Red, Black, Double Black, Gold Reserve, Green, 18 Year or the Blue?

Episode 35: Johnnie Walker Black Label vs Double Black Label
22 February, 2025
The naming of the Double Black Label leads to the direct comparison with the Black Label, and despite Jim Beveridge’s intention with the Double Black to simply add more of the smokey dimension, I look at how they ended up creating something that was quite different and quite good. I look at the ways it’s different and which you may personally prefer.

Episode 34: Johnnie Walker Blue Label Blended Scotch Whisky
21 February, 2025
The top of the line Core Range from Johnnie Walker is the infamous Blue Label and at $300 AUD a bottle, it had want to blow my damned socks off. I speculate about why it’s likely a Non-age Statement Scotch, what it’s core components are, and try to decide whether or not you should buy into the hype. Is it as good as they say?
